Have you ever been to Santorini?

Tuesday, September 26, 2006

Perivolos Black beach....full with people....full of fun....next to the crystal clean Aegean Sea waters & under the hot Greek sun! I really miss the fun I had there. It is a beach at the eastern side of the wonderful Santorini Island. But for all those who have not heard before of Santorini, I would like to make here a small introducction....Santorini IslandSantorini is hailed as the most beautiful island of the Aegean and one of the most gorgeous spots on the planet. Unique on every way: awesome landscape, cosmopolitan atmosphere, fascinating history, high quality services and idiosyncrasies in its everyday existence-quirks of custom or experience that you can only enjoy if you know the secrets of its lifestyle.The moment you reach the island of Santorini you feel as if the power of the volcano has touched everything with a unique aura. Every corner of the Santorini has its own history and mystery and the whole island breathes a romantic atmosphere, that you cannot find somewhere else.The caldera's sublime beauty has moved poets like Nobel Literature Winner Odysseas Elytis to compose odes of exaltation and transported more prosaic admirers to hyperbole and tears.

Out of the bowels of the thunder you cameShuddering with the irresolut cloudsStone of bitterness, tempered, arrogantWhere hope is carved out of the deep secrets of your heartWith fire, with lava, with smokeWith words that illumine the infiniteYou brought Forth the voice of the dayYou felt the joy of creationYou surged into the world, firstbornBorn into the purple, risen majestic form of foam.
